Pro tip: Lightly crush or break cinnamon sticks before adding to liquids—this releases more essential oils and intensifies the flavor. For maximum potency, toast briefly in a dry pan until fragrant.
Sticks vs. Powder
Powder gives immediate, intense flavor—perfect for baking where it blends in. Sticks release flavor gradually and can be removed—ideal for liquids and dishes where you want cinnamon essence without grit. Keep both on hand for different applications.
